Absolutely disgusting that crossing patrols are being withdrawn. This is putting young and vulnerable peoples lives at risk on busy roads.

It was a lovely, sunny morning for a positive and productive Croydon Labour canvassing session, with a hint of nostalgia walking through a road that was part of my childhood in Fairfield ward, Croydon.

I'm walking home from choir rehearsals and I see "binmaggedon" may not be so bad in the Croydon town centre as bad as other parts, but it's still rubbish, not worth the council tax we pay. Along with other council services, parks libraries etc...we need a fresh start next year.

Wow. Croydon Labour has voted for change.

“Rowenna Davis won the Croydon Mayoral selection with 82% of the vote on a 46% turnout.”

We must stop things like this fly tip outside my flat. I fell over and spent last hour at GPs being treated by nurse for cuts and grazes. Fortunately I fell on the mattress 😣 which I did not see. It's a nightmare

Stylised text reads: "Dear Chancellor, We fear the cost of cuts is too great." Open letter. The Scope and TPT logos are placed at the bottom of the text.

We’ve united with @Scope and other charities against cuts to disability benefits.
Together, we’ve published an open letter to the Chancellor urging the government to safeguard them.

Read the full letter on Scope’s website: https://tinyurl.com/5hxxzw2x
